Hey gurpreet or any thread members,

Do u follow any strategy to benefit practically from Manhattan SC, i.e. do u read 2 chapters work on OG,Verbal Guide.

My concern is there are a lot of things being thrown by the book like common prepositions, Middlemen, Warmups, even though it might be bearable to remember these different rules for the first 5 chapters, it would eb difficult to keep all these strategies in head by the end of the chapter, what is the solution?

I am solving one full verbal test daily and following remaining chapters in CR bible. Meanwhile, I am revising all the questions, which I have posted/replied on GmatClub, on SC and CR.

Just revise again or any other way?

Thanks.

I Will start MGMAT SC + OG as suggested by MGMAT in its book. This seems to be good strategy. You also give it a try.

Another thing you can do: try to find the errors, if any, without looking at the 5 options first.

main(){If{ you didnt find any error(s), then great, move ahead and quickly scan the choices to confirm A}Else{ scan the choices to match the errors you found in the original sentence}}

I really need help regarding SC section..

I have done Manhattan SC 2005 edition 2-3 times + Grammar book for reference + Manhattan Review Guide but whenever i try to solve OG my accuracy is just 60 %..

I am planning to give my GMAT next month but don't know how it would be possible with such a bad performance...

Any help would be highly appreciated..

Thanks

My advice would be try to rember the facts rather than just reading it over and over again. Understand that the time your spending re reading is more than the time it takes you to note down a few facts for referring later.

Or you could use gmatpill i heard it is provides SC flash cards and it helped some people.

If you remember atleast 5 concepts each day, Then it would be much more helpful. ( If hypothetical + Then Conditional, never use could, would with if. )

hii..

Is there any specific way to Improve in Modifier Qs of SC as i feel that i m having the least accuracy in them..

Thanks..

Modifiers are indeed tricky. If you have exhausted MGMAT SC and still not comfortable with the modifies, I will suggest you to read a grammar book. Google the modifiers, and master the concept and keep learning until you are clear about the concepts.
